What is the New Sustainable Digital Economy
A new production system and a new market
The New Economy is what we had envisioned when we started the Digital Revolution in the 90's and build the Internet. The basic idea was to create full access to real time world-wide data and information. Based on Macro economics theory on how markets reach their optimal equilibrium. When both the supply and the demand sides of the market, are well informed to make rational choices. Which is for beings, like us humans, impossible to do. Simply, because it is impossible for a single person to master all knowledge necessary to make even the simplest choice. We therefore learned to rely on; experience, assumptions and trust, far more than we are using accurate data and true knowledge. We rely on experts who we trust, because they seem to be trusted or are endorsed by others. We are therefore easily fooled and manipulated. If you want some proof on this, go and have a chat with your marketing & communications department.
Taking well informed rational choices becomes even more impossible when that pile of knowledge, information and data has grown to massive proportions. That's why we spent the entire Digital Revolution building algorithms to process that data based on the latest knowledge, we as humanity have obtained. To produce the best possible data driven decisions. Put both together and add machine learning and we have ourselves a fantastic decision support system, we now call Artificial Intelligence.
For business this means a total shift on how we organize and run our businesses. Imagine full access to all real time market information. Your processes are fully data driven and designed according to the latest business process designs. With the Internet of Things, all your systems are directly controlled by the latest insights and data. Human labor within the production system has been limited to a minimum. Jobs will be limited to where machines, like robots, still can't do that what humans can. Jobs like giving care, being creative, being curious, emotional and instinctive. Most of today's white and blue collar jobs will not exists anymore or have been decimated in required capacity, including yours and mine.
Which is fantastic because now you have more time to enjoy life but still be assigned responsible leadership for Human Progress. And this is not exclusive anymore to the Cognitive developed elite. With A.I. we made an external brain, that follows our external muscles (powered machines), Our enhanced ears and eyes, (radio and television) and our external stomach (Fire). Enabling everyone to become a responsible leader over his personal, professional and social life. Accomplishing missions ranging from essential needs in life, to the great experiences of life, to sustainable progress of life.
But your market has changed as well. Customers will be represented by their personal A.I. powered assistant. They do not have to rely on experience, trust and assumptions anymore. Their decision making will change from emotional to rational. From poorly informed to fully informed and guided by personal norms and values. And now you have to go back to that same Marketing & Communications Department, because the rules have changed and you have to ask them what they are going to do about it. How are they going to deliver on the promises made.
Artificial Intelligence, is not intelligent. It is goal oriented and finds the best possible option for a success. It doesn't care what the result supposed to be. It has no feelings, no thoughts, and doesn't have an instinct that addresses emotions. As it is not driven by the fear of dying or stimulated by any personal desires. It just follows rules and uses the data it is presented with.
And that is where we humans come back on the stage. We have to feed the A.I. with our feelings, our desires, our ideas, our human emotions, driven by our instinctive fears and desires. We need to provide the A.I. with an individual feedback to tell it how happy we are on a scale that is fluid in time and definition.
The A.I. is going to ask humanity to address their skills and intelligence on activities and subjects, where the A.I. struggles to increase the Universal Love and Happiness score. The A.I. will always struggle with real emotions, as it can't feel but just understands feelings. A.I. also relies on our capabilities to just imagine. Our ability to fantasize, to pop up idea's out of thin air. Our ability to feel pain and joy others experience. Why we admire people with courage, people that overcome fear, people with bright idea's, people that dare to enter the stage and perform. Overcoming fear of social exclusion. Our desire for social inclusion. When A.I. becomes trustworthy, makes wise decisions instead or correct decisions, is configured to thrive on Quantum decision making and thrives to optimize its data for this configuration.
In the New Sustainable Digital Economy we as humanity are going to experience total different lifes. How different depends on us now. With A.I. as a Technology, of which Chat GPT5 is just one of the many functionalities, our human, nature and planetary needs are gathered, monitored, qualified, quantified. It uses the Internet of Bodies. The Internet of Minds, The internet of Nature, and the Internet of Planet. That already do exist now. It uses the Internet of knowledge, The internet of Things, and the Internet of Human Talent. To continuously redesign a production system based on the latest technology available. Using Enterprise Technology Suits, Remotely operated systems, supported by robotics and a slice of Human Talent. To have those needs fulfilled at fabulous timing rates supported by an interconnected global distribution system, with extreme powerful & constantly improving prediction models. Allocating goods and service by some sort of privilege system. Like wealth and income that determines your level of wellbeing.
Within this Digital integrated A.I. managed economy the rate of scientific research and technological innovation will accelerate to an unprecedented speed. The rate of speed will exceed our human capabilities to adapt our skills, businesses, industries and economy. Unless we transform to super agile talent and organisations. To derive super Agility our business are going to change to virtual organisations. Tiny production units sometimes manned by a single person, that continuously are part of various virtual organisations producing an array of end user products.
Based on the Values and the corresponding data we feed the A.I., It determines your future business success. It depends on how you are able to address as much values as possible that the market asks for surrounding each individual need. Transforming to the New Sustainable Digital Economy, is about becoming super Agile, Values Driven, Responsible leadership, being digitally connected and a reliable data source.
The Universal Love & Happiness score.
Within Macro economics we search to maximise wellbeing within a society we define as an economy. Producing goods and services that are distributed on a set of rules amongst the population to serve and increase their well-being. We as humanity developed a numeric system that indicates wellbeing by welfare. We call it today's money system that supports the economy and helps our decision making to improve our well-being based on perceived and priced value.
The Universal Love & Happiness score does the same but it takes welfare closer to wellbeing. Universal Love & Happiness score stands for the nett score. So it does not only count the gains but also the losses. But this time it includes social and environmental costs. So is seeks to maximise collective gain and minimise collective loss. Growth of the global Universal Love & happiness Score means true progress for People and Planet.
Love stands for the amount of happiness you gave to others. Similar to your current tax bill and nett earnings cumulatively summed up to our National / European Gross Domestic Product. In other words Love equals all the goods and services we produced for eachother to make you and others Happy. So the Happiness stands for the level your needs are met. Your current expenses and experiences. The difference is that your love score and your happiness score is not necessarily related to a transaction. If i buy an electric car, assuming that I reduce air pollution, I increase not only my own happiness score but also everybody's happiness score who desires clean air. In return the suppliers Love score is based not only on my happiness but that of all the people who benefit of this transaction by reduced air pollution.
With the blockchain technology we are able to develop an advanced value system that far exceeds the limited valuation system provide for by our current money system. Today, the first steps are taken with the European Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). Where the CO2 footprint of a product can be subtracted from your personal CO2 budget and the price value from your bank account. Which raises questions to which extent we want the government to intervene within our lives as consumers and to which extent we are prepared to give up our privacy. In a broader context we should therefore rethink government as well.
- How can we construct a new social contract using the technology of the digital revolution?
- Why would we need to rely on a small group of powerful people that represent us while we can easily represent ourselves using the new technology?
- What if we can use this technology for self governing, based on your own personal set of norms and values?
- What if this technology generates far better and more pluriform outcome for our societies, than our traditional governmental structures can possibly do?
- What if this technology can maximise your life experience, that of others and that of the generations after us?
- And what if you could freely decide how that maximum universal score looks like for you, for the others and for the planet?
- What if you could live the life optimised to your own personal norms and values.
That is what the New Economy is.
- Universal Value Driven
- Post Digital Revolution
- Post Globalism
- Post Traditional Governments
- Mission Based Leadership based on intensive co-operation, transparency, technology and free open knowledge.
And it has already started.
New leaders of the Production system
The production system representatives include; businesses, institutions, and governments. Each player (you) within these group of representatives will gain an enormous power with the Technology offered. And so will his/her/them responsibility and ability to lead. At Progress as a Mission we help you to become one of those new leaders.
We at Progress as a Mission are not directive in any way on how that New Economy should look like and which values and norms one wishes to serve and in which direction one should lead.
What we do is help you discover how and why that Technology will increase your power, your responsibilities and your ability to lead. Creating a blueprint of your organisation in the near future
New Responsibilities
The reason for us to do so, is that this technology comes with extreme responsibility and therefore needs good leadership. That's why we have these topics as our main concerning objective within our programs. To Progress to the New Economy of the post digital revolution, we have to configure this technology with utter care and wisdom. We have to take on responsibilities that lay far from the circle of influence as you might have today. The technology will increase that circle of influence beyond your circle of concern. That means you will have great responsibilities and will therefore become directly and definitely accountable for the results we leave to our next generations.
New Economy Transformation vs Strategic Digital Transformations
Transforming to the New Economy therefore requires a broader scope than pure Strategic Digital Transformations. Although they are part of Transforming to the New Economy.
Transforming to the New Economy is about:
- Creating a vision for the Society that you serve en live in.
- Serving multiple goals at once for multiple customers and customer types with just one product.
- Being granted Responsibility based on results.
- Epic Leadership that has legend proportions
- Intensive cooperation that devy your levels of trust
- Mission Driven to accomplish
- Using Knowledge and Technology for Progress, Purpose, Profit, People and Planet.
- Love & Happiness as your main business drivers.
